About Me

At any given moment, I can be found loving life hard! I love being the architect of my own life, feeling empowered and making the magic happen! I believe in taking action, being part of the solution and striving to be the very best version of myself. I place a high degree of value upon authenticity, integrity and depth of character. I bask in the sunlight of life and take it all in one perfect moment at a time! I love finding a way through the challenges, celebrating the shiny silver linings and expanding my perspective. I am in love with the intricate dance required to achieve that delicate balance between heart and mind. I believe in moderation, determination and FAILING forward. I am passionate about learning and can most often be found sprinting through this marathon of life full of energy and embracing the light. Growing, stretching and constantly pushing forward are crucial elements of my equation. Time is absolutely precious and I refuse to take it for granted. There shall be no drinking of the complacency kool-aid! I choose to spend my time with those that I love the most and wrap both of my arms tightly around them and this beautiful life!
